Black Bedrooms

One time I had a boyfriend. Don't tell Mr. Donaghy...it was a really long time ago. The only reason why I am thinking of him now is not because I miss him or even dismiss him, but, rather, because I remember I thought he was really crazy for painting the baseboards of his rental a super high gloss black.

Fast forward, oh, say 12 years, and now I look back on that black paint and think..."I love black paint!" But why just leave it to baseboards? I say paint the whole room black!

I was inspired by Serge Gainsbourg's hallway in his apartment in Paris.



Ain't that a sexy bitch of a hallway? Of course it would be Serge's hallway. I think that the hits of light along the walls that highlight the artwork make it more boudoir feeling than horror freak show.

But, if black is too much of a commitment for me, how about this....





I think I am gravitating towards the dark peacock color...after being in a white room, I think I need a little bit more color.

Thoughts?

P.S. My garden looks like crap and I think I lost a rosebush from neglect. Alas, $16 will get me a new one and really, it doesn't bother me too much.
